    Is it wrong that knowing that Worms Reloaded gives stuff in TF2 makes me more interested in it?

    No, that's perfectly natural. It's what inspired me to get back into Sam & Max.

    Can't wait to hear how good this is. Sadly I'm strapped on cash and can't get it yet. Luckily Castlevania HoD is very addictive.

    Out of curiosity, are there three other people interested in the 4-pack? It works out to $15/person, and I can make the initial purchase. I would require reimbursement via Paypal.

    Not entirely sure, is this coming out now or tomorrow. I know it says 1 day remaining but is that including the 24 hour pre-order count?

    No. The 24-hour head start should begin right about now.

    I'm looking forward to some impressions/reviews as well - I love worms (and tf2-stuff), but I've heard this is basically a (lazy?) port of the console version with way less weapons than Armageddon had, so I'm a bit concerned...

    Hell count me in, too. I'll pay 15 bucks for the game, sure.

    It's unlocked, go download everybody! Do we have a steam group for games, or just use Arma?

    Any group made for PA Worms games would stop being used in any way after a week. Maybe less.

    So is Armadeadon just our go-to group for any games now? And not just Left 4 Dead?

    I can dig that, although I suppose it would make more sense if it was the default PA group.

    I have one copy left from a 4-pack. If someone wants it for $15, add me on Steam and I'll send you paypal details. The game has unlocked, so you could be playing right now.

    It's Worms, but it looks weird. Also there's weird stuff, like sentry guns.

    I just played an online game, which I won with a single worm with 1 HP left.

    What's the button for chat? Towards the end of the game, I saw a ringing phone, which in Armageddon was the symbol for unread chat messages, but I don't know how to open the chat in this.

    I moved it to Q and moving around with WASD, Shift to jump and Space to attack.

    Tried it a bit. Doesn't look all that extra-awesome, which makes me sad. The 4-Worm limit per team is kind of bullshit, too.

    I haven't tried using girders, but switching air strike direction was moved from arrow keys to Z, so I'd assume it's the same for girders.

    I played a couple of games against the computer. I don't know if it was just because it was on easy, but it seemed much stupider than it ever was in Armageddon. It positioned multiple worms right next to each other, near water and fell into water when using the jet pack to get a crate.

    Also, I bound the chat key to page down, Worms Armageddon style.

    Is being able to drop stuff while on a rope or jetpack not common knowledge? Most of the people I've played online so far landed to attack.

    IIRC there are two reaspons you might not want to attack from the rope. 1. The limitation on weapons available, and 2. the time limit after you attack may induce panic.

    I tend to fall under #2, but I still try!

    They were attacking with dynamite and mines.

    One of them did seem to try doing it after having seen me do it, but didn't figure out that you use the jump button instead of the fire button and just wasted a ninja rope.

    Good news to whoever posted something about explosions not having any weight in Armageddon -- they shake the screen and it's quite loud, theres OOMPH to it


    edit: the movie trailer soundbank for worms voices is fucking awesome


    "It was supposed to be a routine pick up..."

    "No one thought he would pull the trigger..."

    "In the beginning, there were worms..."

    "In a world, where no worm, could trust each other..."

    sadly for those who played worms strictly for ninja roping, I don't think this is the game for you



    I really dislike the rope physics in this one, and I was one of those who played rope race and shoppers and all back in the day

    The physics in general seem kind of strange compared to Armaggeddon and World Party. I can't seem to put my grenades where I want them, and ropes work rather weirdly.

    It's basically Worms from ten years ago, which is exactly what I wanted. So I'm pleased.

    Multi player games are not displaying for me, however.

    EDIT: Got the games to list, but it crashed the program when I attempted to join. Odd.
